Black Iron Crown

Chapter 300: 23 years of the empire coming to an end

After hearing this messenger's words, the residents of the city became agitated.

Except for knights and nobles, horseback riding is not allowed in the city of Mecaron. If caught by the sergeants who patrol the city, fifty whips can't escape.

However, this messenger not only rode horses in the city, but also ran wildly on horseback. Not only that, but he also made loud noises.

This is simply guilty of public anger.

Just when the citizens who were interrupted to do business or were frightened were furious to find the patrol sergeant and arrest the person who dared to race in Mecalon City, they finally heard him shout. What exactly is it.

"What? Rebellion? Still so many noble lords?" The citizens couldn't help talking after hearing this.

In their opinion, they thought that the noble master was an incredible big man. At the beginning, there was only one Earl Zhebo in such a large area of ​​the North. Now it is one duke and fifteen earls. Yes, there are one hundred and twenty-three barons.

So many big people rebelled at the same time, what a big deal it must be.

Although it doesn't have much to do with them for the time being, everyone has a little worry in their hearts. Everyone is thinking, what if the rebels hit the northern border that day?

There are so many lords of the earls, the lords of the earls, although the lords are powerful, but they are only one earl, shouldn't they be able to beat so many lords?

Rainer also noticed the commotion in the city. His main castle was located in the center and highest point of the city.

No matter what happened, he couldn’t escape his eyes. He frowned and waited for someone to report to him. He grinned reluctantly and said to Baron Cod: “Your Majesty is dead. The crown prince succeeds to the throne. The lord of the party does not seem convinced..."

Having said this, Rainer cast his gaze out of the window again, and said preoccupiedly: "I'm afraid...this group of people will rebel..."

Baron Cod was silent, he didn't know what to say.

As a distant branch of the royal family, although he himself did not get any substantial benefits, his family blood was still there. He always hoped that the Merland family would continue to rule such a huge land.

"Master Earl!"

There was a knock on the door, and it was Rainer's most trusted rebel, Sarang, the son of Baron Azac.

Rainer cast a glance at Baron Cod, lowered his eyelids and nodded helplessly, and then said loudly to the door: "Come in!"

Sarang walked into the study. Behind him was an armed man who looked very tired.

Rainer glanced at the man, and already guessed in his heart that this should be the messenger from the imperial capital, otherwise, there would be no such riots in the city just now.

Sarang said: "My Lord Earl, he is a messenger from the imperial capital. Her Majesty the Queen and Grand Duke Mabra wrote on the letter the situation faced by the imperial family at this time, and sent it to you after they signed it together!"

Rainer nodded, stood up and walked in front of the messenger, and found that this was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, wearing a cloak that could vaguely see the family crest, and he should also be a noble child.

His immature face was covered with mud and sweat, and his hair had long been stuck together because of sweat, and it looked sloppy and sloppy.

Looking at his embarrassed and tired look, Rainer stretched out his right hand to pat his shoulder.

Unexpectedly, the messenger hid back for a while, lowered his head and said humbly: "Excuse me, Lord Earl, my body is really dirty. In order not to get dirty, please don't touch me with your hands!"

Rainer heard the words, still patted him heavily on the shoulder, looked at the opponent who was nearly a head shorter than himself, and said solemnly: "Don't say such things, Sir!"

"Your achievements will not be obliterated, and your family will be proud of you! You did it. I believe you will not stop for the 2,000-kilometer journey! I am very grateful for your timely news!"

Rainer looked at the messenger approvingly and said.

He walked this road in person naturally knowing how difficult it was, and he was able to catch up with him the day after he returned to the territory, and you can imagine what kind of long distance he went through and rushed desperately.

Hearing Lena's words, the eye circles of the messenger could not restrain their redness, perhaps because of thinking of his journey along the way, or perhaps thinking of the other two companions who are now unaware of life or death.

Rainer sighed and set him up for him, then opened the lacquer on the envelope and began to read.

Looking at the letter in his hand, Rainer's brows frowned.

After reading all of them, there was an extremely solemn expression on his face, holding the letter in silence.

Then Rainer handed the letter to Baron Cod.

He took the letter and scanned it carefully. The expression on his face was exactly the same as that on Lena, which was quite ugly.

"The current situation is far worse than I thought. There are too many lords in rebellion. This failure directly caused the royal family to lose the deterrent power of many lords from all over the country. If it wins, it can be delayed for at least a few months. !"

Listening to Rainer's words, Baron Cod nodded, closed his eyes and sighed, then said: "I don't know if the royal family can survive... This... Your Majesty died too early!"

Rainer was also speechless, and could only say: "We can't change all of this. Now we can only increase our strength with our best efforts to deal with the upcoming changes..."

The lords of the south and west suddenly raised the flag of rebellion because of the annihilation of Earl Weasley.

They killed the poor few officials dispatched by the royal family and blatantly announced that they would end the "unjust" rule of the Merland family.

There was a duke, fifteen earls, and one hundred and twenty-three barons who participated. Although they had not yet united at this time, the pressure on the royal family was not even a little bit.

So many lords added up to have the strength of more than 40,000 regular troops. At this time, the royal family lost more than 2,000 regular troops because of the defeat of Earl Weasley.

This is not a small loss, the emperor only maintained a regular army of 15,000 at his peak.

For now, five thousand people are already one-fifth of the royal family's strength. What's more, when Earl Weasley died, the UU Reading www.uukanshu.com royal family directly lost a right man.

This incident directly became the fuse of the rebellion of the lord everywhere.

Lena leaned forward slightly, supported his chin with his hands, and muttered: "The empire established by the Merland family will not be declared dead for 23 years..."

The rumors have no wings, but the news is transmitted faster than if they grow wings. Although Lena’s territory is still a relatively traditional small agricultural society, simple commercial circulation has emerged.

Such news spread to every corner of the northern border along with the traveling merchants and small caravans.

In order to quell the negative impact of this news, Reiner had to issue a number of decrees, and at the same time recruit another 800 troops to start training. It took two months to calm the matter down.

On November 15th of the 23rd year of the Empire, the sown grains were fully mature, and wheat, soybeans, ice sugar cane, and alfalfa had all progressed to maturity.

The entire Northern Territory has once again entered a busy state, otherwise such messages may have to be discussed for a while.
